Citizen tips lead to two drug arrests in Holyoke

HOLYOKE — Two men were arrested last week after police responded to complaints about drug activity at a Maple Street apartment building, according to Holyoke Police Chief Brian Keenan.

Around 8:50 p.m. Thursday, detectives and officers checked the area near 462 Maple St. and saw two men they believed were selling drugs.

The suspects were later identified as Anthony Broden, 41, of West Springfield, and Angel Garcia-Sanchez, 24, of Chicopee.

Broden was arrested on the spot for an outstanding warrant related to drug charges, police said. Garcia-Sanchez ran from police but was caught shortly after. Officers found 132 vials of crack cocaine, 70 bags of heroin mixed with fentanyl and $366 in cash, Keenan said in a post Friday.

Both men face multiple charges, including drug possession, intent to distribute, conspiracy and trespassing. Garcia-Sanchez also faces a charge of disorderly conduct.
